Boo Berry Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 (edited) YTK Pro is the ultimate Yahoo! Messenger companion. This easy-to-use chat utility provides additional features to Yahoo! Messenger including enhanced privacy, unlimited safe list/white list, unlimited ignore bin, font and style filtering, the highest of anti-boot protection available for the Yahoo! Chat network, 100% working voice lag protection (without dropping audio at all), and full spam and nuisance blocking. Advantages Of Using YTK Pro Ease of use:Select the filtering options you want along with their custom levels and YTK Pro will take care of all the rest! 'True' Yahoo! Messenger Integration!YTK Pro integrates with Yahoo! Messenger and truly extends it's functionality, meanwhile, adding in it's own. Unsurpassed Chat Protection!YTK Pro helps to prevent abusive users in and outside of chat rooms from successfully deploying "boots", "lags" and other malicious attempts against you to knock you off the network or interrupt your chat session. Chat Room Message FilteringDuplicate messages, "screen clears", lag attempts, bounce/jitter bot disruption and flooding chat rooms with messages can be optionally blocked so you don't see them. Enhanced Privacy SettingsYTK Pro includes privacy features that go far beyond those included with Yahoo! Messenger. Extended privacy options allow you to decide if you want to receive private messages and invites from people on your buddy list, safe list, people in chatrooms, and from people that you do not know (unknowns). Font & Text Effects FilteringMessage text effects such as fading, alternating text colors and large fonts can disrupt chatrooms and make many messages hard to read. YTK Pro can optionally filter the sender's chat text to remove these attributes. 'Bot' BlockingYTK Pro monitors the content of private messages and chat room messages and will block SPAM-related material and random annoyances as they occur.

TCP voice forcing uses alternative method identical to VC Sync 1.0.0.8's method now. Splash screen now alternates between 2 images at random, 1 is partially transparent. Multiple TTS (Text-To-Speech) bugs were fixed. Some tattoos were still being read. In some cases lines of chat room text were being repeated over and over by the engine. TTS was limited to chat room users only and safe-listees and buddy's text were not being read. Stripped extended characters and non-printable chars (if they exist) because sometimes the speaker would interpret them. [*]Adjusted "Smart Cloaking" feature to uncloak more reliably when exiting chat rooms. [*]Fixed multiple recent Yahoo! server change incompatibilities in YTK Pro that caused frequent disconnections (updated YTK-generated packets). [*]Keep-Alive registry cleanup code implemented when YTK Pro exits. [*]Protocol Reversion cleanup code implemented when YTK Pro exits. [*]"Idle Status Spoofing" when in C-Mode could cause disconnections. This is now fixed to where you can't idle spoof while in C-Mode (you never could anyway). [*]Yahoo! 360 Invitations are now silently discarded until they're properly "zoned" (next build). [*]Chat room window check is now done to avoid TTS speaking text after you've closed your chat room window (Yahoo! has a bug to where it doesn't log you out of the room a lot of the time and you'll continue to be sent user's chat messages). [*]Protocol Reversion should only be used now BEFORE you login to Yahoo! Messenger, not during an active session EVER or you'll risk disconnection. [*]Gawd Mode was taken out, it's DEAD until we find a workaround. [*]Deny-A-Buddy functionality now changed (thanks to Yahoo! server changes) where you can ONLY deny WLM (MSN), LCS and IBM Lotus SameTime users when logged into YMSG version 15. Denying Yahoo! users is still possible but you will have to use Protocol Reversion to gain access to YMSG version 12, login and then open up Deny-A-Buddy to deny Yahoo! users (this is the ONLY workaround). No longer can you simply deny a user from all 4 chat networks during the same active session. [*]Yahoo! Messenger version 8.1 build 401 is now supported, no changes seem to be necessary at the moment to indicate otherwise. Feedback is appreciated if anything is noticed.

NightmarE D Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 (edited) ^Rip off or not, Yahoo chat isn't worth a crap anymore anyway. All rooms are mostly bots. I haven't been in any of their chatrooms in about a year and a half. Their chat started dying off once they removed user rooms because that sick, perverted guy raped a kid on a live webcam. It's pretty bad when a room has 50 people and 35 are porn/spam bots, 10 are booter bots and the remaining 5 are actual humans :laugh: Everyone I know on Yahoo has stopped going in there, it's a joke. Yahoo has done nothing to try fixing the bot issue at all. I wouldn't be surprised if they get rid of chat completely here soon.

Boo Berry Posted June 9, 2007 Author Share Posted June 9, 2007 Hardly a ripoff, and I believe you got it the other way around. :p Unlike Y!Tunnel, most (if not all) features actually work without crash reports ever. :p But hey, whatever you wish to think. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
